Re-Mixorz from Gigamesh and Nick Catchdubs

In continuing to fill the remix-junkie role here on TSRE, I’ve been pumping a couple of really dope electro remixes the past couple days, from Gigamesh and Nick Catchdubs. These guys are two of my favorite remix artists - Catchdubs has been on my radar for a long time now (see my post from a while back about his tunes) and Gigamesh really got my attention a while back with his remix of Animal Collective’s "My Girls". Always nice to hear that some of these remixers aren’t just one-hit wonders.

Catchdub teams up with Kidz in the Hall, who you might know either from their 2006 mixtape School Was My Hustle or from of their later collaborations with dudes like Colin Munroe and Just Blaze. They definitely have that Chicago rap feel, but Nick Catchdubs flips it around with a skittering beat and some pseudo-dub bumps. It’s not for everyone, but if you like house rap, you’ll probably dig this tune.

The second track of the day is Gigamesh’s remix of CLASSIXX’s “I’ll Get You” and is a complete banger. This tune sounds like it was made for arenas and clubs, designed to bring the house down. It’s a lush, synth-heavy mix, and man does it rock. I really dig this tune for some reason – perfect for your next impromptu Thursday night dance party. Cough cough tonight make it happen.
